I keep walking while I hear Boss say that they will come for me at lunchtime, I have not the slightest interest in what those nameless try to do to me… if any of them try something, I will make sure to gouge their eyes out.
Entering the school building I can see Rumi threatening a random boy, he surely would have done something to her, Rumi is not like that with everyone for no reason.
I Stop paying attention to this unimportant interaction while I continue on my way, I find it impressive how people spend their little time in life being intimidated like me before, people like me end up like me and that is not a pretty end, it's interesting how the people that are considered bad is living a better life here.
"Alex..."
I heard a girl's voice calling, so I turned to her.
She is Natsuki, my best friend, and the most special person I have ever met, everything about her from the outside to the inside is unique.
Every time I look into her eyes I can see everything, unlike my eyes, thousands of feelings can be observed by just looking at them.
She's also quirkless, which makes her even more unique. The happiness that I see from her when she is with me makes me feel a little special, even if she has no friends and her parents barely give her food, even though people mistreat her all the time...she looks so happy next to me
It's the first time I've felt this... I remember feeling it before but for the first time since I was born, I see someone special.
Now I can't stop thinking about why I haven't helped her even though other people intimidate her even when I'm there.
I have always tried to put these people away with words but Rumi always ends up hitting them in defense of Natsuki because she is my friend. This is my mother's fault but luckily... I woke up yesterday...
"Alex, are you ok?"
I didn't realize it and I stayed appreciating his specialty for a while.
"Yea...Good morning Natsuki"
"Good morning, you feel better today?"
She asked as she start walking next to me, I can already see other students looking at us with disgust, but much more at her because she's quirkless and me for hanging out with her.
And in fact, that is the reason why the group of no names and the boss hit me, I usually take the blows instead of defending myself because they say that if I don't let them smash my face they will do it with Natsuki.
"No" I'm not feeling a single thing at this moment so I don't know if I'm better than I was on Friday, Boss punch is one of the strongest hits I ever get.
"Something wrong? Don't worry, I can help you with anything you need!"
She said with a big smile on her face.
"Don't worry, there's nothing you can help me with"
"Really..."
While we were walking to class, she didn't stop looking into my eyes for a second, which almost made her fall when we were going up the stairs, even when we got there, she didn't take her eyes off of mine, I didn't care and just entered the class and went to the seat that was right next to the chair that was closest to the window in the far back of the class.
"You look different..." She said as she watched me sit quietly.
"What's different about me since you last saw me?"
"Everything..."
Maybe I change a bit, just yesterday I realized I'm 54 now, so I guess it's normal that my 10-year-old attitude changed because of that.
Although if I'm being honest, I don't care what people think about it... I don't even know who or what I am, I don't even know what my real name is. I guess this is what they call being lost in life, although I'm lost in existence.
I'm wasting my short life wandering through existence, but I really wouldn't mind losing my life here... in the end, my death will be the same, my body will remain motionless in a small enclosed space no matter what I do, even if my soul trip to another different body again everything will remain the same, the only purpose of my existence is to feel these boring feelings. I wonder, if all this loneliness, greed, and disgust were exchanged for something else, would anything change?
Would my end be different?
Would the people next to me be different?
Would I... be different?

"Do you understand how to solve the problem, Musashi-Kun?"
I had fallen asleep with my eyes open while looking at the ceiling and the math teacher just woke me up by speaking softly close to my ear.
I take a few seconds to look at the board only to find it full of letters and numbers that I have no idea what they refer to. I turn my head to look at the teacher who was quite close to me and was looking at me while she waited for my answer.
She is a little tall and has brown hair that reaches almost to her waist, her eyes are a beautiful purple color which reflects fun and charisma.
The children at school spend all their time talking about her because of her beautiful face and personality, but above all because of her body.
"No"
My answer was quick and simple, I don't need to say anything else.
"Then I'll be forced to tell your parents how you fall asleep in my classes and don't pay attention" She's trying to play with me but I just don't pay attention to what she says, seeing this she continues talking normally to the rest of the class.
She is a great friend of my mother, they know each other from a long time ago, she knows me since I arrived here in Japan, since the first day she saw me she has not stopped provoking and bothering me.
I looked to my left and I could see Natsuki looking out the window, her legs are shaking. She always has that affectionate attitude when she is with me but she knows that most likely she is just pretending although she still doesn't know how she does to show that amount of happiness in her eyes.
I don't want that specialty to disappear from her eyes, if it does she will stop being as unique as she is now. And if I don't want that specialty to go away, I might have to eliminate the problem that's taking it, I don't care if I have to kill someone just to keep feeling this specialty, I've killed people for stupider reasons than this.
If I don't protect her, no one will do it...
If her specialty is not with me, then nobody else will have it...
